COMP9322 Software Service Design and Engineering Fethi Rabhi and Onur Demirors

Content SOC Research Group presentation Overview of course

1, Service Oriented Computing (SOC) Research Group SOC is the recipient of a significant component of UNSW’s extensive investment in research, capacity building and IT infrastructure. SOC’s presence has enabled CSE to move rapidly – concurrently developing research, teaching, postgraduate supervision capability and leadership in service engineering.

Service Oriented Computer Group (SOC) Recognition of SOC research resulted in several invitations to researchers to act as general chair, steering committee member, and PC chair of major international conferences, and a strong partnership with the Smart Services CRC (since 2007), SOC members have attracted an average of $400,000 per year in CRC funding). In the last 10 years, SOC researchers attracted over $3 million in ARC and DEST competitive research grants.

SOC Staff Research Capabilities Scientia Prof Boualem Benatallah (Group Leader) Service oriented computing Prof Fethi Rabhi Service engineering Dr Helen Paik BPM and Semantic technologies Dr Lina Yao Internet of Things Prof Onur Demirors (Visiting Professor) Past SOC research graduates and post-docs are now academics or researchers in reputable universities or prestigious research labs (e.g., IBM T.J. Watson, USA; HP Labs, USA; SAP Research, Australia; Microsoft, USA; CSIRO and Data61, Australia).

2. COMP9322 Overview Leverages knowledge of SOC Research group Part of three-part series of the Data and API Engineering stream Connecting business concepts to IT concepts Service computing Business/IT alignment Semantic modelling Industry (vs academic) focused Multidisciplinary approach

Learning Objectives Describe different architectural design approaches and their role in engineering software. Apply modelling of services in different settings Be competent in designing, managing and documenting APIs Understand techniques for enterprise modelling and semantic modelling of simple and complex structures, as well as their associated technical standards and technologies

Organisation 2 hour lecture slots (inc. guest speakers) 1 hour tutorial/discussion Computer labs Assignments See schedule on course web sites (changes are possible based on feedback)

Assessment ● Group Assignments (30%): This component assesses the modelling skills related to learning outcomes. ● Practical Labs (10%): various assessments based on the lab activities. ● Written final exam (60%): individual assessment.

Group assignment and tutors 4-5 members per team Form and register teams on course Web site Let course admin know by Friday if You are a team in need of members You are a member in need of a team Course admin and tutor: George Joukhadar (g.joukhadar@unsw.edu.au) 2nd Tutor: Madhushi Bandara (madhushib@gmail.com)
